Top 10 Fittest Rising Stars in Hollywood 2017 – Samir Becic

Every year, young and fresh new talent rises in Hollywood. Many of these talented young people will go on to win awards- Oscars, Grammys, Emmys- you name it. A lot of them will garner international fame and endorsements, all of which come with a lot of attention and pressure. Being in the public eye is not easy and can be stressful. Being active, however, has been shown in many studies to help with stress management. Not to mention, that many young children and teens will look up to these rising stars as role models, so picking active, healthy idols is important!

In previous years, we published the list of the 100 Fittest Rising Stars in Hollywood. This year, the HFR institute whittled down the list from 100, to 50, and finally to 10. We have combined founder Samir Becic‘s expertise as a health and fitness expert of over 20 years, interviews, and social media posts to narrow down these fit young celebs.

Samir Becic says of these young Hollywood celebrities “Rising stars are the future superstars. And with that, they become mega-influencers in the world. I’m asking each of you on this list- Let’s keep motivating our children to be the healthiest and fittest they can be so we can fight childhood obesity and diabetes type 2, while also creating successful leaders of tomorrow.”

This year we are crowning the Top 10 Fittest Rising Stars in Hollywood 2017- here are the active young stars that made our list:

“I’M TRAINING TWO-AND-A-HALF HOURS A DAY, PUSHING MY BODY BEYOND ITS NORMAL LIMITS, PUTTING ON A LOT OF MUSCLE MASS AND JUST MAKING MYSELF LOOK LIKE SUPERMAN.”

Cavill had to consume 5,000 calories a day to keep up with these heavily intense workouts. He consumed numerous protein drinks per day to make up for lost calories, along with high quality fat and protein foods.

Zoe includes ballet barre workouts into her regimen at least three days a week. And eEating healthy has always been a huge part of this actress’s career.

“TO ME IT’S NOT ONE THING. TO BE REALLY IN SHAPE, IT’S DYNAMIC, IT’S GOT TO BE A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS, ALWAYS SWITCHING IT UP. SO A GOOD DAY FOR ME WOULD BE HIT THE GYM, DO SOME SORT OF CROSS TRAINING IN THE GYM AND THEN GO SURFING AND THEN TAKE A JIU-JITSU CLASS AT HIGHT OR GO SWIMMING…”

Nina Dobrev

This Vampire Diaries star has a bombshell figure with a fierce attitude to match.

“I’VE ALWAYS LEAD A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE, I’VE BEEN A VEGETARIAN ALL MY LIFE, AND I GREW UP PLAYING A LOT OF SPORTS, BUT I WASN’T REALLY GROWING UP. SO I HEADED TO THE GYM AND IT’S GREAT HOW THE RESULTS QUICKLY BECAME APPARENT.”

Michael B Jordan

“I WORK OUT NOT ONLY TO BALANCE FOOD, BUT ALSO TO KEEP MY MIND FOCUSED. AND FOR ME, THAT COMES IN MANY DIFFERENT FORMS. IT CAN BE TAKING A WALK OUTSIDE, BOXING, OR GOING TO DANCE. ANYTHING PHYSICAL HAS SUCH A POSITIVE IMPACT ON PEOPLE; THE DOPAMINE AND SEROTONIN THAT GET RELEASED WHEN YOU WORK OUT- AFTERWARD, YOU FEEL AMAZING.”

Shay Mitchell loves to eat just as much as she enjoys exercising. For Mitchell, diet is all about moderation and balance.
